The Lodge was comfortable, equipment was excellent. It is well placed for nature reserves. The neighbours (baa aa) were quietly munching in the next field . They too were hiding from the heat of the sun.

Terry

Lodge was excellent, well equipped andvery comfortable.

Tina

We have just spent an amazing half term at Shepherds Lodge, the weather was fantastic, the lodge was comfortable and big enough for everyone (4 adults + 1 child) to feel they had their own space. Apart from 2 days when we went out to explore Somerset we spent our week chilling out in the lodge or in the hot tub. The sunset every evening, with the s un setting down behind the glorious countryside from the deck or through the patio doors was beautiful. Definitely recommend!

Gill

Very comfortable with wonderful views.

Anthony

Yet again another amazing stay at shepards Lodge, spotlessly clean everything you need for a comfortable stay, amazing views, peaceful setting, so much to do in surrounding area all just a short drive away, Dan the owner very helpful and friendly, looking forward to our return visit next year.

Maureen

A peaceful, warm and comfortable lodge. Everything had been thought of to make for a very relaxed holiday. The view across the valley was gorgeous - especially at this time of year with the autumnal colours - and we enjoyed many hours sitting on the decking watching the birds and of course the sheep. Will definitely be booking again.

Elaine

Immaculate lodge which was spotlessly clean and well decorated with the addition of an excellent hot tub and good parking. It is in a beautiful rural setting with easy access to countryside and surrounding towns and a good village pub.

Barbara

A lovely property in an excellent location. Beautiful views from the garden. Softer pillows and mattress would have been preferred. Mobile phones may not work in the lodge. In spite of the few niggles mentioned, would certainly recommend the property as it was extremely clean and well maintained.

Jill

We all loved it. Fantastic sunsets and a lovely peaceful spot. The sheep make great neighbours! A beautifully clean and well equipped lodge. Access to the main road is easy for days out. The village pub is good for food or just a drink.

An exceptionally private, comfortable, well equipped and decorated lodge with plenty of outdoor space and a hot tub!

Chris

Great cottage .so peaceful and relaxing. The hot tub is private .The bench at the side of cottage is a nice thought for watching the evening sun. All worked perfect inside the cottage with plenty of room. Easy location to get to with a local pub offering very good priced food which can be a take out as well. And of course the sheep! Only two this w eek. Thanks Dan it was nice to meet you

Jacqueline

We really enjoyed our stay as this is a nice lodge in a very good location and the welcome basket was very much appreciated . The kitchen was well appointed but if you intend to cook meals it is slightly lacking. The secure site was ideal for the young children we had to run around freely with enough parking for a couple of cars.

Simon

Great place to stay and was very clean dan the owner was very helpful and friendly

Louise

A beautiful lodge in a perfect location for exploring Somerset. We would definitely return.
